Humors of Retrenchm emit.

From the Louisville Courier Journal.
Every now and then some funny things occur
in the attempts at reform and retrenchment in
the departments A notice appeared in paper
that henceforth clerks in the War Department
were either to have their own towels washed at
their own expense or go with dirty hands. The
washing had been paid for out of a fund for lie
cessities, and clerk who had charge of the ac-
counts decided that clean towels did not come
under that head, and therefore there was no APP
preparation to pay for the washing of towels.
match to this occurred some time ago when
there was found among the accounts of an Off
Ger which were forwarded for audit $40 for post
age stamps. This last item was dsallowed, for,
said the Dogberry who wrote to the officer, 1.-THE
law requires that an offer for bids should be
made for all supplies and the contract given to
the lowest bidder" In reply the following an
swer was SENT las counterfeiters are the only
competitors with the government for furnishing
postage stamps, l thought it best not to open
bids with them"
Another case: Gen. Poe is stationed at De-
troit. In violent gale he saw a government
vessel wrecked with all on board He quickly
chartered n tug and sent it to rescue the men
When he sent the bill to Washington to pay for
the services of the tug, the account was re-
turned as disallowed, owing to the fact that no
bids had been opened for the furnishing of a
tug to rescue the drowning seamen." The dig
nifty of an office should be as jealousy guarded
as its honesty. No laws are as good as those of
common sense, and hair-splittings are neither
wise nor desired.

Convenient Divorce Laws in Egypt.

Alexandria Cor. of the Milwaukee Sentinel
wife may be divorced twice and return to
her husband, but If he divorce her third time
and with a triple divorce declared, and send her
away, he cannot live with her again until she
has been one month married to another man
After the third divorce the husband must pay
the part of the dover which was set aside for
the wife before marriage, and he must support
her out of his house during the three months in
which she may not marry again. If the wife be
separated from the man. and not divorced she
receives a weekly allowance from him. A
divorced woman may, after divorce, retain her
son. under two years of age, and custom gives
the child to the mother till it is seven
years old; then the father must claim
the son. When man forfeits an engagement
to marry, he must pay the woman half her
DOVER, and she is free to marry at once. When
wife is disobedient, the husband may beat her;
II she persist in disobedience, he may take her
court, and declare against her. and if she does
not promise to be obedient thereafter is not
obliged to feed, lodge clothe her, but need not
divorce her; and if he suspects that she desires
to be divorced in order to remarry, he surely
will not. If she confesses her wrong and
promise obedience, he must at once divorce her
or take her home. If q wife does not wish to
live with her husbsnd, she enters q complaint
against him at the court, stating that her family
will support her, and makes demand for sepa-
ration. If the women of the same harem, or of
different ones, quarrel and are complained of to
the court, their husbands arc punished by the
court; but we may be sure that their vicarious
correction does not save the poor women from
chastsement. The husband divorces the wife
but the wife cannot divorces the husband.

The New York Sun announces its inten-
ton of occupying a position in the front
line of the Democracy in the next Presi-
Dental canvass, and in the same issue, re-
ferring to the Presidents letter in favor of
Col. Fellows says: ut warmed toward him
the Democratic heart, and made those who
had hitherto looked at him with GOODNESS, or
even with aversion, ready to shake hands
and begin anew in common and hearty
effort to promote real Democracy and build
up the Democratic party, without regard to
Mugwump criticism or interference. All of
which goes to show that the sun comedies the
denomination of the President, and is
willing to support him for reelection. 1t
is evident that the SIN has had enough of
boiling, but how will Mr. Dana feel when
the Republican papers quote some of his
reckless utterances which married the col
umns of the Sun at the time he was sup

journalism in Russia.
From the London Daily Ne,cs

TTOm Tue LOHuOb DuHy NeWSs
The conditions of journalism in Russia are
often puzzling to the outside observer 1t is
scarcely possible, however, to misunderstood
the order which, according to Reuter-, has just
been issued by the Emperor in regard to the
Moscow Gazette. The Emperor is said to have
appointed committee, consisting of the Minis
tiers of Finance and of the Imperial Domains,
the PrOcurator of the Holy Synod on. Pobedino
self aud two members of the Council of the En-
pire, in order to examine the question of the
successor to be appointed to the late NJ Kat
koff." In the time of its late editor this journal
used to be held up to admiration as an example
of independent journalism in Russia. AS re-
CARDS other newspapers, one was known to be
the organ of the Minister of the Interior, anoth-
er of the Minister of Foreign Affairs and all
were under the control of a censorship and of a
severe press law. But the restraints to which
other journalists submitted gave way before the
vigor and determination of Michael Katkoff,
who by sheer force of character defed the cen
sorship and rose superior to the press law. That,
at least, was the theory on the subject, though
it now appears that the editorship of the Mos
COW Gazette is post which is as much under
government any Office belonging to the pub
lie administration.

Southern Jeweler Fakirs.
FROM the ,Je,reIer's Weeklu.

From the JetCeterS weekly.
Every cheap jewelry "fakir" regards the
South as his special territory, and the darkies,
when they have money, will buy of him any
thing that does not cost more than soc. met
a queer character IN Georgia. He told me that
he he'd been peddling cheap jewelry, either
singly or in combination envelopes, for nearly
fifteen years. Evidently the business paid, too,
because he put UP at one of the best hotels, and
lived pretty high when he wasn't out trading, ="
as he called it. SO much 'jewelry" used to go
into his packages that often wondered how on
earth he could give even so much brass for 25c.
In one parcel, which a darkey bought one
night, saw him put watch, six colored stone
rings, two plain band rings six cuff buttons, a
watch chain, half dozen collar buttons, and
two rings with two enormous white stones.
When the last two articles dropped into the bag,
the buyer, who had been watching every move,
passed up his quarter ond left the crowd with
protruding eyes.
Half an hour later, while l was still watching
the fakir'S operandi, his customer came back
with a look of scorn on his face and demanded
his money back, because dem stuns want di-
nuns at all. -

No Room for "Reds."

In a letter TO Mayor Hewitt, of New
York, the Reds" with the usull flourish of
stereotyped phrases announced that 1.-THE so
cial revolution has begun" that ''the rights
of the citizens of this country will be de-
Tended with all the means obtainable;" that
mo sensible man ever advocated brutal force
to obtain justice, but that as men we, now
more than ever, do recommend to the peo-
pie to make full and energetic use of the
rights of self defense if their rights are
brought in danger or infringed upon by
lawless gang of policemen"
Thus far the social revolution" has made
very little progress. In fact, it appears to
have developed that popularity noticeable
in many other misguided movements of
progressing backwards 1.-The rights of the
citizens of this country will be defended"
through the ballot boxes, and no better
means of preserving them have ever been
devised.
The great trouble is that the guiding and
governing spirits among Anarchists are not
citizens, and many of them cannot speak
the English language. No better evidence
of this is needed than the letter above re-
ferred to, which was written in German,
and when translated by prominent MEM
Der of the organization was almost unintel-
ligible. But whether they understand our
institutions or not, these Anarchists will
find out, if they have not already done so,
that laws which depend upon the will of the
people for their enforcement are as much to
be feared as those which depend upon the
will of a king. The sooner they make
themselves acquainted with our laws and
institutions, particularly the spirit of them,
the better it will be for them. There is no
room in this country for men who march
under the red flag of anarchy.

Making John McCullough's Bust.
From the Boston Herald.


The other day was introduced to a small,
slight man, with fair Vandyke beard and pen
etrating blue eyes, in whom l discovered the
sculptor of the John Mccullough bust that is to
form part OF the monument to be erected to the
memory of the late famous American tragedian.
The sculptor, w. Clark Noble, is distinctly
American in one phase of his art, and that is he
has never spent one hour in foreign travel or
study. The bust of Mccullough has recently
been finished in bronze, and is to surmount
stately pillar of granite in the cemetery near
Philadelphia, in which the actors remains are
buried The pose and character selected for the
bust is Mccullough as ''Virginius" The we'll
known classic throat and head, with the short,
crisp, curling locks AMI clean-shaven face, CIV
ing the proper prominence TO the equally classic
features of the dead and gone actor, are repro
duced in startlingly natural manner, and the
classic folds of drapery over the shoulders are
also wonderfully realistic Mr.. Noble tells me
his drawing was accepted from among those of
numberless competitors for the work. The bust
was modelled in Newport, where, for number
of years, MIR. Noble has occupied the Greenough

Blaine Losing Ground in the West.

There appears to be an impression among
Western Republicans that their party will
make mistake if it dominates Mr.. Blaine
again. They have no personal objection to
him, and regard him as one of the ablest of
their leaders, if not the ablest, but they are
inclined to think that there are others who
would stand better chance of being elected.
One of the most prominent of the Western
Congressmen-a man who has been
elected to the House of Repre-
sentatives seven times-said day
or two ago, in an interview, that the
Western Republicans wanted candidate
who would not have to make explanations,
and who would stand good chance of car
rying New York.
There is very serious doubt among
Western Republicans whether Mr.. Blaine
could carry New York, and they regard the
defeat of their party as certain unless they
carry that State. The two fac
tions of their party there are no closer
together now than they were four years ago.
Mr.. Blaine did not harmonic them in 1884
and he cannot do SO in 1888. Conkling is
his bitter enemy, and will not permit him
to become President if he can help it,
The name Of Judge Gresham is being
mentioned in the Republican journals of the
West with increasing frequency, and it
would not be surprising il ne should be
chosen to lead the Republican ticket. He
certainly would not be required to make
explanations and the fighting factions in
New YORK might accept him as a satisfac-
tory candidate.

Three New York Journalists.

From the Menu York Graphic.
Bennett, Dana ami Pulitzer have amassed for
tunes, but not exactly in the work of a writer,
as Greeley or the elder Bennett understood 1t.
Young Bennett, believe, does not write at all,
though he concerns himself with the minutest
details of his great journal. Mr.. Dana is the
only purely literary man at the head of a news
paper in New York. Mr.. Pulitzer is an able
wrter-a very able writer. In 1S75-T6 he wrote
letters from Washington to the Sun, and their
value was so conspicuous that they were
always printed in double leads. There is no
man in this country, save Carl Schurz, who
commands style more vigorous and lucid
than Pulitzer. But it is as a money maker that
he takes rank. When be set about recreating
the World he offered Frank Mclaughlin, the
publisher of the Philadelphia Times, a third in
terest to take hold of the business department
of the World. He made several t ials of men
before he got the right one, but it was Pulitzers
own genius for business deal and perfect
knowledge of newspapers resources that made
the paper what il is

The Republican leaders are at their wits
ends over the announcement that Gov. Hill
will again send to the Senate the name of
Col Grant for Quarantine Commissioner of
New York, in place of Thomas c. Platt.
The last Senate ''hung up" the nomination,
but since that time the party has honored
Grant by placing him at the head of their
State ticket Truly Gov. Hill will make
shrewd move if he dominates Grant, for it
will place the Republicans in a bad hole in
any event, and create row in their camp.
If the nomination is confirmed, the Gov
ernor will be rid of Platt. and his friends
will fight the Grant faction of the Republi-
cans the harder, while if the nomination is
again rejected, it will be a direct slap at

When Senator Hoar made his speech adj
vocating the enactment of law requiring
freedom to vote and fair count south of
Mason and Dixon's line, why didn't he refer
to some of the peculiarities of the election
he might have found material for a good
speech in the reading and writing qualif-
cation in Massachusetts, or the property
qualification in Rhode Island. Again, he
might have referred incidentally to the
condition of the working classes in Northern
manufacturing towns where they are vir-
tually coerced into voting the Republican
ticket.
